Directed by Winy Maas of MVRDV, Space Fighter presents the Evolutionary City by the Action Space! studio. An ambitious project to create a new simulator tool for both urban planners and project managers alike. The journey begins with evolution, Darwin s phenotypes and the realms of biology, sociology, and economics. Pumped by evolution's magic, the studio delves into game theory, synthesizing a set of games modeled on diverse aspects of the city - from the practicality of a building developer s tasks to the intangible social aspects of a city.
WHY ITS DIVINE: 'Spacefighter' is Actar's book-length exploration of 'The Evolutionary City,' a piece of software that envisions urban design as a video game. It's like Sim City for real engineers, integrating game theory, economics and biology to simulate the complicated problems in large-scale design. Somehow we doubt Robert Moses would approve. --The Huffington Post Space Fighter suggests that tomorrow's cities will be run like video games, an organizational challenge best addressed through simulations, not the book-based planning of today's town halls. So will mayors one day fire their planners and pick up a Wii? Only time will tell. --Dwell Magazine
An MVRDV/DSD project in collaboration with the Berlage Institute, MIT and cThrough.
